The woman said that the merchant sent a "poisonous express"
In the video, the netizen said that she was pregnant, and she received a courier with "cypermethrin" written on the outer packaging. After opening the parcel and touching the unknown item inside, slight suppuration and corrosion appeared on the hand. "I checked it, it's a pesticide insecticide, and if you inhale a small amount, you can be poisoned. After she inquired about the relevant information, she thought it was a retaliatory courier sent by an e-commerce platform merchant.
The netizen also said that a few days ago she also received a courier package containing only peanut crumbs. Fearing that a similar situation would happen, her husband reported it to the police station and made a note overnight.
The reporter noticed that in the video comment area, some netizens were suspicious of the "poison express" and the merchant's retaliation. However, the netizen explained that she did not have a "refund only" or a bad review of the merchant when she shopped online.
On the evening of April 22, a Jimu News reporter contacted the netizen by private message, and the other party said that he had called the police to deal with it. If she has a dispute with a merchant, it will be easier to deal with it by telling the police directly who the merchant is, but at the moment she is not sure which merchant's retaliation is. Regarding other circumstances of this matter, the netizen politely declined the interview, "I just want to remind everyone to pay attention to the 'poison express', I don't want to be attacked by others, and I don't want to create public opinion." ”
